Firefox & IE CSS issue

Hi,

Just developed a new site (FW+EE). Used the “external stylesheet” function in FW. During development checked the result in Safari & Chrome on Mac. All looked fine (with the exception of some minor issues).

Testing today in Firefox and IE and most pages look like shit. It seems that both browsers have problems with the CSS. Can somebody show me what I’m doing wrong?

Have a look at some of the pages. http://www.eubottle.nl/las
or http://www.eubottle.nl/over_ons/category/over_ons/

Check to make sure you have set the base HREF so that the various
links that Freeway makes are properly converted from relative to
absolute. I’m pretty sure that Joe’s EE Actions do something about
that, you just have to set it.

Hmm. Base path was set to: Use Base HREF. So that should be OK.

Any other options?

When I looked at it in a browser, it appeared as though your image references were looking one step higher than the url indicated was possible. Did you make this site in a subfolder within Freeway, and publish it to the web root on the server?

Walt,

Structure looks like this in FW (like Joe’s manual)

./Site folder/blank.html
./Site folder/template_files/index folder/index.php
./Site folder/template_files/merken folder/index.php
./Site folder/template_files/embed folder/index.php

etc.

Uploaded to the root of the server. Structure like this:

…/public html/blank.html
…/public html/CSS/
…/public html/Resources/
…/public html/template_files/index folder/index.php
…/public html/template_files/merken folder/index.php
…/public html/template_files/embed folder/index.php

Both CSS and image references are missing but only when viewed in IE or Firefox. In Safari and Chrome all seems to be fine.

A little more digging, and maybe the problem is the logo in the upper
left corner. It appears to be wrapped in two A tags:

<a id="Logotop"><a href="http://www.eubottle.nl/index/"><img  
src="../../Resources/legendslogo.png" border="0" width="150"  
height="70" alt="Logo van Legends" style="vertical-align:baseline;  
margin-left:6px; margin-top:10px"/></a></a>

Safari is auto-correcting this, but Firefox doesn’t twig to it
(according to Firebug, anyway).

See if fixing that changes anything.

Oh, one more thing – make sure that the live site URL is set
correctly in the Document Setup dialog in Freeway. It may be missing
– I see your base HREF as a relative /level/level/ rather than a
complete http://your.server.com/level/level/ URL

Walt,

Thanks again. The relative path was the issue.
Still have to correct the logo though, but it looks OK now in Firefox.

Have a nice weekend,
